Siri mic starts and stops in 1 second

Hi all,
So,
- quit messages app to clear it out
- I start the Messages app - click on a person - then click at bottom to message area
- then click on MIC for dictation
- 1st time siri starts - then stops after 1 second
- then after that I try again and it stays on while I talk
Q: HOW DO I FIX IT SO THAT IT WORKS AND STAYS ON = THE 1ST TIME?

I am still having this issue - any ideas how to fix it?

  • Mic Starts and Stops Working

    So I'm sitting here looking at the audio settings for my mic because it stops working after less than a minute of unplugging and replugging it to get it to work, and the little grey bar for the mic volume will drop all the way to low and the mic won't work, but if I click anything, say Sounds, then Audio settings again, it starts working then stops again in under a minute. I went into playback devices and it says the mic is working properly and it's pratically brand new. I've already tried reinstalling Skyp

    I suggest the following:
    1. Make sure the mic is working with other programs.
    2. Install the latest version of Skype.
    3. Disable the automatic volume adjustment in Skype audio settings.
    4. If problem is not resolved then provide logs as described in this link  under Skype for Windows Desktop and attach it to your post.

  • Iphone4, starts and stops charging every second.

    Hi,
    super frustrated here. I have an iPhone 4. I recently replaced the battery in an Apple store. for the first 2 weeks everything was fine, but recently everytime I plug it in to charge it vibrates twice to indicate that its charging then stops and starts again about every 1-2 seconds. I have taken it to apple so they could re seed the battery and clean out the ports and make sure its nothing on the wear and tear end but nothing works. and since my warrenty is out im out of luck in terms of a free swap. has anyone heard of this issue or any fixes? is it a hardware issue or could it be software? maybe a bad app install? any thing helps here. thanks
    Evan

    I checked today
    the battery started the charging loop at 99%, BUT (each time it re-started charging) there was 1 hour left for full charge.
    I hope somebody can help me

  • Reset song start and stop times

    Resetting start and stop times for all songs.
    Hi. I recently trialled a DJ BPM matching software product and unknown to me, it scanned all my songs and in the majority of cases, put new start and stop times (in seconds) so now when I play my songs in iTunes, they either start to play early and/or stop playing before they are complete.
    I can go and reset these parameters manually but I have 5000 songs so wondered if there was a utility or a file I could edit that would do this for me as its really annoying that the DJ software didnt reset these when I uninstalled it at the end of the trial period.
    Thanks
    Jason

    You might be able to use this script to reset the start/stop times to zero.  Try with a small selection and see if it works for you.

  • HT6058 I have updated my I pad dut I'm still having problems my iPad seems to freeze and when I go to put in my pin it take a few seconds before the numbers go in and my games stop and start and stop and start for a bit before they run properly

    I have updated my I pad dut I'm still having problems my iPad seems to freeze and when I go to put in my pin it take a few seconds before the numbers go in and my games stop and start and stop and start for a bit before they run properly

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • Starting and stopping stream capture repeatedly

    Hi,
    I am building a vmail server that captures an incoming, continuous RTP voice stream from a hardware phone and records portions of that stream to disk, based on control messages received (like record/stop buttons for a continuous RTP stream).
    The first time I record, the sound file on the file system is well formatted. Subsequent recordings result in headerless audio files (although the audio data is correctly output to file otherwise).
    The problem is that I need to get header information written to the audio files for subsequent recordings.
    Here is a bit of source code to show how I am starting and stopping recording. At this point, the processor is already created and realized and the MediaLocator is previously initialized:
         MediaLocator recordedML ;
         public void startRecording() {
              try {
                   processor.start();
                   DataSource ds = null;
                   ds = processor.getDataOutput();
                   recordingDataSink = Manager.createDataSink(ds, recordedML);
                   recordingDataSink.open();
                   // starts sticking captured data into a file
                   recordingDataSink.start();
              } catch (IOException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              } catch (NoDataSinkException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
         public void stopRecording() {
              try {
                   recordingDataSink.stop();
                   recordingDataSink.close();
                   recordingDataSink = null;
                   processor.stop();
                   processor.deallocate();
              } catch (IOException e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
    Calling startRecording() and stopRecording() the first time results in a properly formatted sound file on the file system, captured from my incoming RTP stream.
    Calling startRecording() and stopRecording() subsequent times results in headerless audio files.
    So the problem seems to be that subsequent calls to processor.getDataOutput() result in a DataSource that doesn't print a file header.
    What I have tried includes:
    -recreating the processor, but this doesn't work because it seems you can only do this once for a single incoming stream - the processor never reaches the configured state a second time.
    -reconfiguring the processor or re-realizing the processor, which doesn't do what I want either.
    One way that I think this would work would be to write out the audio header manually after the capture is complete, but this seems like a gross hack and I would rather do it through JMF.
    Is there a way to fix this via JMF? Is this a JMF bug or is it intended to work this way?
    Cheers,
    -Jeff

    Hi, I am unfortunately unable to help you but perhaps you could help me. I have a Java GUI that I want to enable to record voice from a mic at the click of a button (stopping automatically if possible) and save to a defined file in the code. Would you be able to help me here? I have tried different source and rejigged things but I cannot seem to get anything working.
    Any help gratefully apreciated.

  • Start and Stop Trigger using PXI-6120 and DigitalSta​rtAndStopT​rigger.vi not working :-(

    Hello,
    I've been trying for a while now to get my PXI unit to capture a waveform between a Start and Stop (Reference) Trigger using the NI example DigitalStartAndStopTrigger.vi downloaded from the NI website. However, whilst the start trigger and stop trigger seem to be working i.e. the VI runs and stops at  the correct times there is never any data read from my DAQmx compatible PXI-6120 card. So I can see the VI is running around the aquisition loop but the Property Node AvailSampPerChan is always returning zero... this has me slightly puzzled. I thought this might just be a driver issue so I've updated my box to the following software versions (see below) and installed the latest drivers e.g. DCDNov07.exe (also from the NI site) but nothing has changed.
    my software as of now.
    Labview 7.1 (with the 7.1.1 upgrade applied)
    Max 4.3.0.49152
    DAQmx 8.6.0f12
    Trad DAQ 7.4.4f7
    before I updated I had the same problem but with the following versions:
    Labview 7.1 (with the 7.1.1 upgrade applied)
    Max 4.2.1.3001
    DAQmx 8.5.0f5
    Trad DAQ 6.9.3f4
    So to cut a long story short I still have the same problem with the triggers... does anybody have any ideas what is going wrong?
    To add insult to injury it the traditional DAQ example ai_start-stop_d-trig.vi was almost working correctly before I did the upgrade. It had the strange behaviour of capturing the AI0 channel but on the wrong edges (e.g. if I set Start on Rise and Stop on Fall it would do the opposite, Start on Fall and Stop on Rise).
    I'm going to leave my box doing a mass compile over night but i'd really like it if someone could suggest a solution or point me in the right direction.
    Many thanks,
    Mike

    Hi Graham
    I'm out of the lab today but I'll try and answer your questions as best I can...
    1) What are the values you have set for Buffer size, Rate, samples per read and post trigger Samples?
    At the moment I have all the values (e.g. sample rate, buffer size etc) unchanged apart from the ones I mentioned in my previous post (see above). I have in the past played around with changing the buffer sizes and rates in the example VI but as this appeared to have no effect on the behaviour I now have them setup as in the download.
    2) Does the program end after the stop trigger is implemented?
    Yep, if I toggle the trigger line high then low I see the program exits the read loop and the VI stops running as expected.
    3) Lastly can you give me the details of triggering method. Are you
    using a digital train of users set digital pulses? how long is the
    program running.I'm using the WriteDigChan.vi to manually toggle the first digital line of the PXI-6733 card which is wired directly to PFI0 of the PXI-6120 card. Generally, I just start the VI running  and then toggle the line high, wait a couple of seconds and then toggle it low.
    To me it all looks like it should be acquiring samples but as I said yesterday it just refuses to fill the buffer with any data (and hence no samples are read).
    Any ideas? and thanks for you help,
    Mike

  • Batch file to start and stop

    Hi All,
    Can we create a batch file to start and stop the services. I need to start all the services like shared, essbase, eas, planning, webanlysis and financial reporting, and at also need to stop them using windows batch file.(Using windows 2003 server....service pack 1). Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The simplest script would be something like this. Save it as a .bat file, set all your services to manual and then set up a scheduled task to run this script when the computer starts.

  • Starting and stopping triggered samples

    The ESX24 Sampler claims to be a plug-in that functions exactly like a sampler should. Previous to Logic Pro 7, I used a SP-606 sampler that had three different ways a sample could be played:
    1. drum - this function played the sample as long as the button (or note) was held down then stopped playing once released
    2- trigger - this started the sample and let it play until the end of the entire audio region
    3- loop - this looped the sample based on the specified start and stop points.
    However under the second function, trigger, you could trigger the sample to start and stop and restart and stop every time you hit the sample button or sent a note.
    Does logic have this function anywhere in the ESX24?
    for instance if i had a 15 second long sample and sent a midi note from a controller to start it...how do i stop it and restart it at will?
    the only functions I see available in Logic are the 'drum' function (where the sample releases and stops as long as you hold down the note) and the trigger function (but in Logic a second trigger does not stop the sample ----
    it triggers a second sample to play again --so that multiple samples are playing simultaneously)
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Starting and Stopping FMLE from command line yields corrupt .flv files

    I am using FMLE to record and live stream TV content. In order to this I am remotely calling FMLEcmd in order to start and stop encoding processes. The problem that I am running in to is that the .flv files generated are corrupt. The odd thing is that if I use the exact same profile XML from the GUI, then the encoding process works just fine and results appear as intended.
    Here is the way my workflow works:
    I start the process by calling
    FMLEcmd /p C:\lighttpd\htdocs\xml\default.xml /l C:\lighttpd\htdocs\logs\log.txt
    then at the conclusion of the recording I call
    FMLEcmd /s "C:\lighttpd\htdocs\files\default.flv"
    When I attempt to open the files using FFmpeg I get a codec error saying that no codecs were detected. When I attempt to open the files in VLC I get a error saying that the media types are "Undf". When I attempt to open or modify the files with flvtool2 I get an end-of-file error. My guess is that my stop command is incorrect and somehow abruptly stopping the stream, but I don't know another way to stop the stream. Do I need to specify a specific stream duration in the XML and make sure to call the stop command *after* the duration has been reached? What would cause this codec corruption when the same profile works properly from the GUI?
    Here is the profile I am attempting to use.

    If issue of corrupt file after cmd line not in GUI mode. Are you using some automation to copy/paste output flv to someother location?
    AFAIK, after placing stop command, FMLE took some time to write proper EOF in FLV. wait ~10 sec for FMLE to complete file writing process and than play in FLV PLayer.
    I tried manually with steps you mentioned and it's working fine for me.I playerd file in Applian Flash PLayer. "http://www.applian.com/flvplayer/"

  • Starting and Stopping a Timer in Java Card + GSM

    Hi,
    I seem to not be able to start a timer that my applet has
    allocated using the PRO_CMD_TIMER_MANAGEMENT
    pro active command. I want to for example set the timer
    interval to 5 seconds and I understand from the gsm
    specs that the TLV value should then be {(byte) 0x00,
    (byte) 0x00, (byte) 0x05} as the hour is zero, the minute is
    zero and the seconds = 5 .
    The command qualifier I set to 0x00 to start the timer and
    I set it to 0x02 to stop the timer. The start and stop I
    control from two menu items. From the GSM spec the first 2 bits
    control the timer and the remaining 6 are RFU (reserved for future use),
    now I assume I can then set the RFU bits to 0.
    I then have a EVENT_TIMER_EXPIRED in my processToolkit which then plays a tone.
    The tone proactive command works but I dont seem to be able to start the time or
    stop it ?
    HELP ?
    is there any suggestions or any error in my reasoning here ?

    I tried your solution but it seems to have no effect (?)
    This is the log entry of the comms during sneding of the timer start
    command:
    (Notice that where you have the Timer Identifier tag = A4, here it is
    24 and where you have Timer Value Tag = A5, here it is 25 - these tags and the APDU's are generated with the GSM java card libs in the development kit I'm using.....) It seems to go through but the TIMER_EVENT_EXPIRED never happens....Help ? Have a look at the source code I included (maybe I'm doing something wrong)....

    Thank you.

    It is now working fine for me (knock on wood).
    There are a couple of things I tried, so I am not sure if it
    was a combination of these, or if something else changed. First, I
    uninstalled and reinstalled the player a number of times. (After
    doing this each time, however, it still kept starting and
    stopping.) Second, I right-clicked on the player during playback to
    pull up the settings, clicked the folder icon, and set the local
    storage to maximum. (After doing this, however, it still kept
    starting and stopping.) Third, I ran an updated version of
    Ad-Aware, which caught and deleted more tracking cookies than my
    virus checker was doing. The next day, everything on the Daily Show
    site seemed to work fine (still haven't checked other sites).
    So my suspicion is that some kind of tracking cookie
    installed itself and was causing the problems. I hope it
    helps.

  • FLV starting and stopping at specific times?

    Im using the flvplayback to put up a video in my swf.
    in my swf i also have several buttons.
    the thing i want to do is when i for example click a button i want to
    start playing the movie from 5 seconds in it and then stop the movie at for
    example 10 seconds in it. even if the video is 20 seconds long i want to
    be able to stop it automatically at 10 seconds in the movie. the start and stop should be
    controlled from the button..
    i know how to start the movie at a specific time but i dont know
    how to stop it at a specific time. is this possible?
    thanks for helping med out!

    FLVPlayback class has a property playheadTime.You will need to read the value of it periodically - so when a desired time is reached, you implement required functionality.
    To do that you will need to add either Event.ENTER_FRAME listener or instantiate Timer class or setInterval method for reading playheadTime.

  • Itunes is stuttering -starts and stops at random intervals

    Hi there-
    I have a 5yr old emac. I am running OSX 10.4.8 and itunes 7.02. I have not had any problems for 5 years,
    Today my itunes started stuttering - it starts and stops at random intervals and it takes forever to start playing again, to shuffle songs, etc... I restarted and it did not help.
    Can you advise me on what I could do next?
    Thanks so much,
    Kathleen in Minneapolis

    It's possible it could be one of several or combination of many things. I'll list the potential problems, and ways to determine if you have the problem.
    First off, restart and do not run any other applications when you run iTunes, and don't run any applications after iTunes is playing music? Does the problem go away? If so, you may not have enough physical RAM installed on your computer for uninterrupted playback. You can find out how much RAM you have installed by clicking on the blue apple icon in the upper left corner of your screen and selecting "About this Mac". The "Memory" line wil display how much physical RAM you have installed. If it is less than 512MB, you should consider getting more.
    My second assumption is that you state you have had the computer for 5 years, it is posible that the hard drive (HD) is getting low on available space. Adding music, email, pictures, downloads, etc. over time erodes away at the available space on your HD. Typically on this vintage computer it likes to have at least 20% of HD free space to work relatively efficiently (this will vary based upon how large your HD is to begin with).
    To find out how much HD space you have available, click on your HD icon on your desktop once, then press and hold the CMD (open Apple) key and press the "i" key. You will see two statistics, "Capacity:" and "Available:". If the amount of available space is less than 20% of your total HD space you may want to consider removing things from you HD, acchiving things, or optimizing you HD.
    How often you repair permissions? I recommend at least once a month, and it's relatively easy and a quick thing to do. Go to your Applications->Utilities folder on your HD. There is an application called "Disk Utility", double click it. Select your HD volume in the upper left corner, then click the button "Repair Disk Permissions". Depending upon how many programs you have loaded this could take several minutes, be patient. When finished, if it fixed any permissions, run it again! Yep, twice, just to be certain, it can never hurt.
    Also, while you're in that application, and done with repairing permissions, click the "Verify Disk" button. This may also take several minutes. When done it should report if it thinks your drive is ok, or not. If not, you need to repair it, and in order to do so, you need to boot from another drive (either another physical or logical drive), so that you can attempt to repair it.
    If you have the purchased utilities such as Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro you can repair disk and directory problems, which could also be causing your problems. A free utility, such as Tiger Cache Cleaner has some utilities to clean caches, and run your nightly, weekly, and monthly processes that may also need to be run.

  • Measurement mark for start and stop interval

    I have added measurement mark as Start interval and Stop Interval and saving that in the Time interval measure as indicator for BAM in my BPM Process.
    This is to calculate the time it takes to finish some task. e.g.
    A. process is started
    B. Start Interval measurement mark is added and saved in measure BAM indicator
    C. some task takes places.
    D. Stop Interval measurement mark is added and saved in measure BAM indicator
    But, when I create the report, the measure indicator doesn't have any value.
    I think I am doing something wrong, but don't know what.
    Has any one done this or come across this situation.
    Thanks

    Dear sir,
    My application development steps are as follows:
    1. My application consists of three control buttons are Start, Stop & Exit
    2. Initially input parameters validation (Limits are assigned)
    3. If any value entered out of limit, it will show the error message and the start button will gray and disabled. The user should not start the application until entered values are valied.
    4. Internally some conversions and logics are implimented.
    5. Coming to Front panel (GUI) start button is green color and stop button is red color.
    6. The user entered the correct parameters and he started the appilication. After sometime he should know already application was started and he should not start again until he stops the appilcation.
    For this i need logic for start and stop buttons to implement in my application. Thats why i choosen the traffic light concept changing the colors vice versa (which button shows green he should press that perticular button).
    Please suggest me or provide any better option for start and stop buttons.
